Crab Installation
*NOTE: PROBABLY IN PART OBSOLETE*
The installation mostly follows the
instructions from the CERN wiki. Take a look there to see whether the installation instructions have been changed.
Important: always check the
release notes to see if the updated version is back compatible (see point 6. ).
A good suggestion: when a new release is out, before installing it it is always better to wait a couple of days after it has been made the default on LXPLUS. Big bugs usually show themselves in that period.
mv $CRABVERSION patchedT3

- Send an email to the user MList containing the new version installed and when it will be the default
